Rogers LTE Devices Now Available

Long Term Evolution (LTE) devices are now available at Rogers in areas with LTE coverage. Rogers started shipping phones to customers on the national reserve list on Tuesday. The new devices include the Samsung Galaxy S II and HTC Raider smartphones, HTC Jetstream tablet, and Sierra Wireless 313U Rocket Stick (which has been available for a few weeks now). In the coming weeks Rogers will also be releasing the Sierra Wireless 754S LTE Rocket Mobile Hotspot.

This year, Rogers will have LTE devices capable of maximum theoretical download speeds of up to 100 Mbps. Today, devices are capable of downloading up to 75 Mbps and Rogers LTE customers are experiencing typical download speeds ranging from 12 Mbps to 25 Mbps. As device selection evolves, customers will be able to take advantage of the full potential of the Rogers LTE network and maximum theoretical download speeds will increase to up to 150 Mbps.

The devices are not available at all Rogers locations, so it is recommended to contact your local Rogers dealer to see what they have in stock before heading out.
